[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the theatre isn't packed, we just sit wherever.  It's an $8 ticket.  Nobody cares.  Only the movie theatres seem to like this assigned seating.

If the place is packed then say "Oh, I think this is my seat, but maybe I'm confused - what does your ticket say?"[/quote]

What? No, you don't just sit wherever. Then you'll end up sitting in some other person's seat.

If you arrive to your assigned seats and someone is sitting there, you simply say "Excused me. I believe these are our seats." And show them your tickets. If they do not move or respond, then you get someone who works at the theater.

And we sure do care. We chose the seats we wanted for a reason.[/quote]

You don't say "I think" or "I believe."

Be more direct. "Excuse me. You are sitting in our seats." Not "I think you are" or "I could be wrong" or "I believe you are." Just "you are."[/quote]

I'm the PP you are responding to. Someone was "direct" to me at the last movie I attended and they were in fact wrong. They "believed" I was in their seat but they had the seat numbers wrong. There's nothing wrong with being polite throughout the interaction.[/quote]

So this.  You can't even entertain the thought you might be wrong?  You might be wrong so just take a chill pill and say I think these are my seats.  Can you check your tickets please? Because that's what is happening.  [/quote]
